• what codec to specify to accessing my HDMI-to-USB adaptor, under Linux ? [closed]

  14 mai 2022, par David

  A week or so ago,I bought a HDMI-to-USB adapter, to use to capture video
TV content from my TV's set-top box. (Xfinity, if it matters. Box generically is :
"XiD X1"...I have both the Pace and the Cisco models available here in this house.)

  


  Specifically, here's the adapter I bought,from Amazon :
https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B09FLN63B3

  


  So, I'm fluent in both Windows (Win-11) and Linux (Debian 'Bullseye', on my chromebook).

  


  The adapter does not come with any recommendations for what software/drivers to (try to) use, but I was prepared for that.
After some google searches, I decided to first try using the cmd-line
'ffmpeg' program, because I'm
quite familiar with that (excellent !) piece of open-source software !

  


  So, after a day or two of (mostly) success recordings under Win-11, using
ffmpeg's Microsoft-based 'dshow' (aka 'DirectShow'), I decided to attempt to get
up to the same level of accomplishment on my Chromebook, under Linux, also
using 'ffmpeg'.

  


  [Ok...a very brief explanation of 'mostly' successful. I'll
post another separate question here, about the specifics of my glitches,
using 'dshow' on Windows. But, essentially, when I try to record to a MP4
file, I get 2 scenarios of glitch : #1 : Suddenly, dropped packets surges up,
and I get "1000 dropped' yellow msg #2 : On other trials, I get '...contains
no image...'.) So, I figured I should first give a Linux a chance,
before spending more effort trying to resolve the glitches on Windows.]

  


  My first snag, was learning that 'dshow' seems to be specific to 'Windows',
and thus ffmpeg is getting 'unknown' for my reference to 'dshow'. After more hours of 'guessing', I've finally learned/concluded that there are other things
(something call "DeckLink" is one such alternative ?) for Linux, but I'm unclear
what extra Linux packages might exist for ffmpeg support, or whether I will need to built a more complete 'ffmpeg' (e.g. from source code), to get things going under Linux ?

  


  Is my device able to be accessed from some tools other than 'ffmpeg' ?
(e.g. VLC or Handbrake or whatever ?) more easily, on the Linux platform ?

  


  [If I had to, I'd probably invest another $20-$50 in some other hardware
device that goes from HDMI-to-USB (USB-A/B), if it were ]

  


  All ideas are welcome...(TIA)

• compile ffmpeg on ec2 linux instance - no libfdk-acc available

  11 mai 2022, par byc

  I’m compiling the ffmpeg on an ec2 amazon linux instance, but it threw me an error ERROR: libfdk_aac not found.

  


  I'm following this guide http://trac.ffmpeg.org/wiki/CompilationGuide/Centos to first install the dependencies and compile the package.

  


  yum install autoconf automake bzip2 bzip2-devel cmake freetype-devel gcc gcc-c++ git libtool make pkgconfig zlib-devel

mkdir ~/ffmpeg_sources

cd ~/ffmpeg_sources
curl -O -L https://ffmpeg.org/releases/ffmpeg-snapshot.tar.bz2
tar xjvf ffmpeg-snapshot.tar.bz2
cd ffmpeg

  --extra-ldflags="-L$HOME/ffmpeg_build/lib" \

  --enable-libx264 \
  --enable-libx265 \
  --enable-nonfree
make
make install
hash -d ffmpeg


  


  and this is the error message I've got

  I tried installing libfdk_aac but there's no package found. I don't seem to come across any posts discussing this issue, or at least recently. Appreciate any pointers. thanks !

  


  [ec2-user@ip-xx-xxx-xx-xx ffmpeg]$ sudo yum install libfdk-aac

• How to "extend" aws docker base image (.net core from scratch) by ... libs/ubuntu/ffmpeg ?

  26 avril 2022, par Nigrimmist

  i would like to use AWS Lambda through the image containers using .net core 3.1 and it is works fine for me in simplest code case. But i stucked with next scenario :

  


  By default, aws provide base image with .net core with aws libs based on "from scratch". So as i know, it minimal Linux that does not contains even package manager.

  


  I need to work with ffmpeg in the code, but to do it i need to install few packages and ... fmpeg. I have working code on image

  


  FROM mcr.microsoft.com/dotnet/runtime:3.1-bionic


  


  It is ubuntu with .net core runtime. But what is the right strategic in case of AWS Lambda image ? How can i ... merge them ?.

  


  Have few ideas, but not sure :

  


  

  1. use as is FROM public.ecr.aws/lambda/dotnet:core3.1 and try to install package manager, all depenendencies to use ffmpeg and so on ?

  


  2. Use mcr.microsoft.com/dotnet/runtime:3.1-bionic, somehow add required by amazon dependencies (how ? download content and attach from local ?) and configure it to run in Lambda runtime ?

  


  3. ... ?

  


  


  Will be glad to hear where is the solution here. Thanks !
